The Roundtable
Fall 2006

Words from President

Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays! 2006, indeed, has been a busy year. It has brought us new beginnings with our move to the new office in downtown Vancouver. The Board of Directors has been busy developing a long term strategic plan. This will give us the flight plan as we move into 2007 and beyond. We have received funds to establish a fundraising plan and the strategic plan will be an integral part of the strategy.

We had another successful AGM on September 19, 2006. Both Donald Renaud & Halldor Bjarnason were the keynote speakers. Don talked about the law and cerebral palsy and Halldor presented a lighter and humorous perspective of living with cerebral palsy. Attendees enjoyed both speakers and I am appreciative of both of them for stepping forward. Besides the move, we accomplished the revision and printing of two resource publication, these being, the Guide to CP and Living with CP. I would like to acknowledge and say thank-you to Louise Gaudry for taking the lead on this project and to the folks that Louise brought in to assist her. Another notable accomplishment is that the CPABC has fulfilled its original commitment to the Bridges to the Future program for our young people. We have now joined with the Muscular Dystrophy, BC Paraplegic and Spina Bifida in the oversight of this much utilized initiative. I continue to represent CPABC at various meetings/events on your behalf. I have been spending some time with the Provincial Equipment and Assistive Devices Committee. The end product of this initiative will pave the way for an easier and accessible means in obtaining the necessary aids required for people with disabilities to be engaged in their personal lives and in their communities. We will look forward to seeing Members and Community Partners at our Open House to be held on Friday, February 02, 2007 (check page 5 for more details). Stay tuned for further details. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to wish you and your family all the best during this holiday season. Stay safe and have a Happy New Year. Your President, Craig Langston

FALL 200 6

By Feri Dehdar The Cerebral Palsy Association of BC (CPABC) is a charitable organization, was established in 1954, thanks to a group of concerned parents who wanted the best possible opportunities for their children living with Cerebral Palsy. Today we provide support, education and information to over 12,000 people living with CP; as well as; families, professionals, students, other organizations and community groups. As the Knowledge Centre for Cerebral Palsy we offer: Family and Individual Support: Our part-time support worker is an information and referral specialist who is able to connect people living with, supporting those with CP, with programs and services. In the last year, Tammy van der Kamp, has handled over 200 inquires requesting everything from basic information on CP, to professionals needing complex medical information. Educational Bursaries: These are awarded to the students living with CP who are planning to pursue post-secondary education or attend institutions of higher learning in the following year. The Guide to CP: A complementary booklet designed to be a general introduction for anyone interested in cerebral palsy, such as: parents whose child has recently been diagnosed as having CP, or who is suspected of having CP; people with cp wanting basic information, or wishing to provide information to friends and assistants; educators, social service and health professionals; friends, relatives and colleagues of people with CP. Living with CP: A manual outlining the services available in BC to individuals and families living with this condition has long been the centrepiece of our information services. Putting the Puzzle Together: A manual for educators and para-educators on how to include children with all types of disabilities in the so-called regular classroom. This manual has been used as required reading at the Kwantlen University College course for community and classroom support workers. This was being revised since 2005 in conjunction with Kwantlen College, Special Education Teacher Assistance Program, and will be available in few months in both forms as a print and compact disk. Library: Our library contains books and videos concerning Cerebral Palsy that are useful to parents, professionals, and those living with CP. We acquired new books this year and lent out resources to British Columbian.

Speakers Bureau: Raises public awareness of Cerebral Palsy and works to remove attitudinal barriers experienced by those living with CP through workshops and presentations to schools and community groups. In 2006, our presenter helped organize talks at Kwantlen College University, Steinberg College, UBC Education department, Western Society for Children, West Coast College of Massage Therapy, Burnaby & Richmond Transition fairs, etc. Bridges to the Future: This is a collaborative service for youth aged 15 to 24 with CP and other physical disabilities, and their families to ensure successful transition to adulthood.

who reported smoking daily. The study also found that among couples parenting chronically sick or disabled children, the mother's health declined more relative to the father's. Among couples with a chronically sick or disabled child in 2000, 35% reported that the mother's health deteriorated more than the father's. Almost 31% reported that the father's health had deteriorated more than the mother's. In contrast, 31% of couples with healthy children reported the father's health declined more than the mother's, while 25% reported the mother's health declined more over the six-year period. Note: This study focused on couples who remained married through out the period studied. Though divorce is often a consequence of the stress of parenting sick and disabled children, the study focused on the impact on both mothers and fathers, and on the population of parents who remained married. The study "Children with disabilities and chronic conditions and longer-term parental health" was prepared by Peter Burton, Lynn Lethbridge and Shelly Phipps (Dalhousie University) and is now available free at (http://atlanticresearchdatacentre.dal.ca). The study was prepared as part of the New Realities in Gender Facing Canadian Society Project organized by Family and Labour Studies Division, which features work conducted in Statistics Canada's Research Data Centres.

Study: Children with disabilities and chronic conditions and parental health 1994-2000

This study used data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth to examine the implications for the health of parents who have children with a disability or chronic condition. It compared their health status to that of parents of healthy children between 1994 and 2000. The study found that mothers of chronically sick or disabled children were twice as likely to report being in "poor" or "fair" health than those without chronically sick or disabled children. Nearly 11% of these mothers said they were in poor or fair health, compared to just over 5% of mothers without sick or disabled children. There was no observed difference among fathers. The study tracked children aged 6 to 15 in 2000 who had lived with the same married couple throughout the study period. Health was assessed by the "person most knowledgeable of the child" who in 98% of cases was the mother. The study found that mothers parenting chronically sick or disabled children were more likely to report being in poor or fair health than those who smoked daily. This was the case even after taking into account differences in mothers' health at the start of the study as well as their age, education, family income, presence and age of For information about this study, or to enquire about the concepts, other children and smoking habits. methods or data quality of this release, contact Gustave Goldmann Mothers with disabled or chronically sick children were 1.5 times as (613-951-1472), Research Data Centre program. likely to report poor or fair health as mothers with healthy children

Words from Secretary

Hello everyone: My name is Kim De Wildt and I am happy to have recently joined the Board of Directors of the CPABC! As my background is in Sales and Marketing, I look forward to making a valuable contribution to the CPABC by assisting with PR campaigns to increase awareness about CP throughout BC and to encourage the forging of relationships with agencies, service providers and corporations in our province. I am open to and would love to hear any feedback, ideas and suggestions you may have and can be emailed at info@bccerebralpalsy.com While I may be new to the CPABC, Cerebral Palsy is no stranger to me. Here is my story: My 3 sons were born and raised in beautiful, sunny Durban in South Africa. My youngest son Shayne was diagnosed with Spastic Diaplegia at the age of 6 months and spent the next few years growing up in a country which was lacking the infrastructure to enable those living with either physical or mental disabilities to be integrated into mainstream society. Shayne attended pre-school at Browns School in Pinetown, South Africa, (a reputable school for children with special needs) where he received on-site physiotherapy on a daily basis and where he was monitored on a regular basis by an Orthopedic Surgeon. In 1996, with violence on the increase in South Africa, I started thinking about moving to Vancouver and with this in mind called the CPABC to do my homework. I recall speaking with the then President, Halldor Bjarnason, only to discover that not only had segregation been done away with years before, but that there were many programs in place to support and assist Shayne as he grew up in an integrated society. Shayne was 6 years old and ready for school when we moved to Surrey in 1997. What a culture shock for my family!!! Gone was the domestic help I was accustomed to!! Driving on the wrong side of the road in the wrong side

of the car proved to be quite the challenge!! Gone were the enforced short back and no sides haircuts or mandatory school uniforms!! And..gone was the buggy that empowered Shayne to maintain such poor posture!! Halldor had told me about and referred me to the South Fraser Child Development Centre in Surrey, where we received endless advice, referrals to various specialists and therapists and support for the first few years. Shaynes needs were assessed and an application for funding was submitted and approved. Shayne was soon provided with a manual wheelchair, and while his 2 older brothers could walk to school everyday without fear of being attacked, arrangements were made for a wheelchair accessible school bus to pick Shayne up every morning and drop him home in the afternoons! Our family is active, loves the outdoors and adores the spectacular scenery on the North Shore, and in March 2000, we moved to North Vancouver and have been living there ever since. Shayne is very well known in our community and at the various recreation centres where he attends Teen evenings, works out in the gym and swims. He goes for horseback riding lessons at Pacific Riding for Developing Abilities in Langley once a week and plays Wheelchair Soccer in West Vancouver every Friday evening. He has a modified Tricycle which he loves to ride when weather permits. Shayne has a great sense of humour and is very friendly and sociable, but most of all he has a very positive attitude!! Our family has been blessed and everyday I am grateful for the people who have supported and assisted us and enriched our lives in so many different ways over the years. In parting, Id like to leave you with one of my favourite quotes by Mother Teresa, one that to me epitomizes Shaynes very attitude about life: Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Be cautious with your donations!

Its a perennial problem that doesnt seem to go away. One of the most frustrating things we have to deal with at the CPABC is people who fundraise using our name in the community. They go door-to-door, shake cans in front of liquor stores, beg on street corners, harangue folks on the phone and generally make a nuisance of themselves. A week doesnt go by when we are not called by someone complaining about aggressive fundraisers. We would like everyone to know that we never have, and never will take part in any of these types of fund raising activities. If you are ever approached by someone raising funds for little children with cerebral palsy dont hand over any money! You should tell the person you would like to find out some more information and get an address where you can mail a donation. Then you can inquire with the Better Business Bureau @ 604-682-2711 or toll free 1-888-803-1222 to find out if the charity is legitimate or not.

C P By Esther Lee A Ive spent a lot of time searching for Gods plans for my life, and B now I believe that my disability has provided insights into some of the C
meanings of life that many people are not able to appreciate. I havent known a life without a disability; My cerebral palsy has played a significant role in influencing my attitudes and perspectives; my disability shapes my personality, emotions, social interaction, and every other aspect of my life. Because of it, I have gone through many hardships. Although my disability colors my life and my whole world, I am the one who gets to pick the colors! I do not let my disability overwhelm me; like everybody else, my life depends on how I handle the challenges that come my way, including fears, hardships, and even happiness. Its in the process of living that Ive found myself and a purpose for my being. As a youngster, I attempted to do almost anything that other kids my age did, such as running fast, playing football or basketball, boxing and the like. Although I was interested in various sports, I realized that I could not be like others no matter how hard I tried. Instead of being deterred, I tried to do what I liked within my abilities. It was here that I was able to create a meaningful life for myself. As a kid, I wanted to be a renowned artist when I grew up. I have always loved to draw. I still love to draw*. Also, I loved classical music. I started to play the cello when I was ten years old and sometimes I still play**. If I hadnt gone to law school, I am sure that I would have been a cellist and an artist. In the past, sometimes, I thought my life was not fair compared to the lives of others. Whenever I have faced unbelievably hard and daunting tasks, I have asked God whether he really created me for any purpose. My faith in God led to an assurance that he did indeed have a purpose for me. I believe that he gave me hardships to make me much stronger. Today, I am more accepting of myself, and I know that diversity comes in a rainbow of colours, and abilities, and disabilities; now I allow my cerebral palsy to be a part of my self-identity. Coming this far and knowing how difficult it is to live with a disability for a whole lifetime, I believe I can help other people with disabilities. I believe that this is one of the true meanings of my life.
* You can see my drawings in the past three volumes of the UBC law Esoteric Magazine (2003~2005). ** I played the cello at my cousins wedding with my sister playing the violin and my brother playing the piano. Also, I played it on special occasions at the school during my junior high school years. In June Aug. 2006, I was a volunteer cellist for special events for people with disabilities at the G.F. Strong Rehabilitation Centre.

By: Halldor K. Bjarnason, Lawyer As a way of cutting costs, people often ask: Can I write my own will? Do I really need to pay the fees a lawyer or notary charges for a will when I know how to write? Or If I can get a Wills Kit from that company on the internet for $29.95, why would I want to pay many times that amount for someone else to write my will? A will can seem very simple, but the potential mistakes can be costly to your estate later on. The more complex your wishes and/or affairs are, the greater the chance that a mistake will be made when drafting your will, unless you have the assistance of someone with specialized knowledge. The rules for executing a legally binding will are fairly simple: 1. 2. 3. It must be in writing (i.e. you can not express your wishes on video tape, on a CD, or an audio tape); It must be dated; and It must be signed by you and witnessed by two adults who are of sound mind and who are not beneficiaries. They must then sign the will in front of you and each other.

These rules are pretty straight forward. Assuming you get past these, there are other rules which, if not considered, can make things really difficult (and expensive) for the people you leave behind. Some of the more typical mistakes in will drafting include: A. Forgetting to revoke a previous will. If you write a new will which gives everything to Aunt Suzie, and the will you wrote last year (and didnt revoke) gives everything to Brother Michael, who gets all of your stuff? This simple mistake may end up needing to be sorted out in court. B. Not considering what will happen if a person named in the will dies before you. What happens if the person named as your executor dies before you? Have you named an alternate executor? How about your bequests? If you leave everything to your only son, and he dies before you, what do you want to happen to your property? Does it go to his spouse? To his kids? To a favorite charity? If you forget to specify, your wishes may not be followed. C. Using improper or insufficient names for a beneficiary. Its important to correctly describe where you want your bequest to go. For example, making a gift to Karen, if you have two friends and a sister-in-law all named Karen, may be confusing. Similarly, a recent gift in a will to the Boy Scouts of Canada led to a court battle between the district council, the provincial office, and the national office, all of whom are legitimately called the Boy Scouts of Canada, but act as separate entities. A bit more clarification ensures that your gift will quickly reach its target. D. Being specific on the purpose of the gift. If the gift is being given to a charity, and theres a specific type of work that you want to support, it is important to be clear in your intentions. For example, if you are giving a gift to BC Childrens Hospital Foundation, but you fail to mention that you really want the money to be used to upgrade the emergency ward, theres no guarantee that the funds will be used for that purpose. E. Not considering what will happen if the property does not exist at the time of your death. People often make specific bequests to individuals, such as my 1954 Buick to my child, Leslie. What happens if, at the time of your death, you have already sold the Buick and purchased a 1934 Ford? What happens if the Buick is sold, and the funds from the sale are sitting in a term deposit? What if the Buick has been demolished, and you havent yet bought a new car. It is important to be clear on your intentions. F. Using imprecise language. A vague description of property can lead to confusion and additional legal costs. For example, giving your favorite gold watch to your grandson, works well if you only have one watch. But if you have five gold watches, there may be confusion. Similarly, a will which left all my real property to X, was deemed by the court to be invalid when the person who made the will did not have at her death, and never had owned, real estate. G. Not giving your executor or trustee enough power. For example, not being able to make final determinations as to the value of property, not being able to make beneficial elections under the Income Tax Act, or not being able to sell assets for cash, can all make the job of administering your estate much more difficult. As well, in writing your own will, you might not be aware of tools, such as trusts or life interests, which can help you to better accomplish your goals. You may also not be fully aware of income tax rules which can affect your bequests. Do you really need a lawyer or notary to help you write your will? It depends. If the person you hire is simply a scribe who writes down your instructions, the end result often wont be much better than if you use a store bought will kit. On the other hand, a lawyer who understands estate law and who appreciates your situation can help you avoid mistakes which, after your death, can be expensive to your beneficiaries. He or she may also be able to come up with creative approaches that you may not think of yourself. The key with writing a will is to be clear with what youre trying to accomplish, and then ensuring that those wishes are communicated properly to the folks left behind.
